Lino Lakes WTP Feasibility Report Cost Estimate Summary No. Description 1 Gravity Filters at the West Side Plant $10,698,600 Raw Watermain $2,411,917 Total $13,110,517 2 Gravity Filters at the East Side Plant $10,698,600 Raw Watermain $2,806,643 Total $13,505,243 3 Pressure Filters at the West Side Plant $9,048,600 Raw Watermain $2,411,917 $11,460,517 4 Pressure Filters at the East Side Plant $9,048,600 Raw Watermain $2,806,643 $11,855,243 Financing/Funding: Water treatment plant capital costs (including engineering, administrative, and financing costs) are estimated at $12,050,000, the additional wells and associated distribution system improvements are estimated to cost $4,825,000. This gives a grand total for the water treatment plant and associated well and distribution system improvements of $16,875,000. As the water treatment plant would provide substantial benefit for the existing water customers, water rate increases could be utilized to fund a portion of the project. The remainder of the costs could be funded by a water availability charge for new connections. Capital Improvement Program: The capital improvement program phases in the wells and watermains as needed for population growth. It also shows the centralized storage reservoir and booster station being built in the 2010 to 2012 time period when more storage is necessary. Using the capital improvement program and system layout, the treatment plant can be added in the future and is shown in 2017. The detailed capital improvement program can be found on page 25 of the attached water treatment plant feasibility study.
